APD: Sunday morning shooting victim expected to recover

The condition of the victim of a Sunday morning shooting on South Florida Street has improved dramatically, and her injuries no longer are considered life-threatening, Amarillo Police Sgt. Brent Barbee said Wednesday.

The woman, 28, was taken to Northwest Texas Hospital on Sunday after being struck several times when a man fired a revolver into the windshield of her car, police said.

Police said when officers approached, Stallings fired his revolver into the windshield, dropped the gun and ran.

After a short pursuit, officers arrested Stallings and booked him into the Potter County jail on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, felon in possession of a firearm and evading arrest.

Stallings is thought to be the victim’s ex-boyfriend, police said.

Barbee said charges have not yet been filed. He said the case is still under investigation.
